Well thanks for such a nice info on using info. well the link conatins more info than APUE as i had already gone thru it. but the problem is all that is given for executable programs. here i am trying to build library which contains functions and yes i am calling these functions from Java environment using JNI. that where i got in trouble, as i had already done this successfuly in C by writing a executable with setuid bit set, using the setuid and etc. i tried to keep the security measures also well though not to the extreme. i think now i am quite clear abt my problem, as i already told that i may be missing sth in the question as i am just a newbie in this fieled, so please don't mind for that. ===== ******************************************************************** I would like to remeber what I enjoyed in life NOT what I acheived Arundeep Singh, India Ph:- 09415262466 http://www.i-cognition.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
